Knicks & Nets Season Opener In Jeopardy

As the city tries to recover from the devastation left in the wake of Hurricane Sandy, the fate of Thursday's scheduled season opener between the Nets and Knicks in Brooklyn is up in the air.

NBA spokesman Tim Frank tweeted this about the league schedule Tuesday morning: "For the many asking: Tonight's NBA games will be played. We are still assessing the situation with regards to the rest of the week."

Whether Thursday's game can go off as scheduled could depend largely on whether or not the city's subway lines can begin to be restored by then.

MTA officials said it could take anywhere from 14 hours to four days just to clear the water from flooded subway lines, which would then need to be assessed for repairs. The Smashing Pumpkins concert scheduled for Wednesday at the Barclay's Center was cancelled.

The Nets canceled a planned practice Tuesday, with no word yet as to whether they will be able to return to the practice court Wednesday.

As a rookie Micheal Beasley averaged 13.9pts per game on .472 shooting. Do you know how many times Kobe Bryant or Tracy Mcgrady shot at that percent or better? Never in there whole careers. If Beas can be what he was when he was a rookie (he won't hell be better) then the heat are coming away with another steal.

Manhattan bridge and brooklyn bridge are open, but the FDR Drive is flooded and remained closed from 116th st all the way to lower manhattan. plus there is no parking lot at the Barclay Center. if there is no subway on thursday, no way in hell people will get to the game.
